The Best Luggage Brand To Invest in For The Avid Traveller

If there is one lesson I’ve learned from almost every trip I’ve taken, it’s that you must invest in a great piece of luggage. Bad luggage will ruin your entire trip. Raden is practically the knight in shining armor of luggage and we’re going to live happily ever after.

On my trip to italy, the wheels were too week and broke on the third day. My boyfriend (at the time) and I were about ready to kill each other. On my first cruise around Europe my suitcase was too small and I couldn’t fit ANY of the things I bought. BUT on my last trip to europe, I promised myself I’d invest in a piece of luggage that would last me a lifetime of traveling and make every trip from here on out stress-free.

When I heard about Raden I just knew that I needed to invest in one. Raden is more than just a another suitcase. It has all the things you want and need in a suitcase: Aesthetics and Technology.

Raden includes all the tech features you’d ever truly need in a bag. The bag has an integrated scale, 2 built-in chargers, and a GPS that can all be used from a simple app. One of the things I struggle the most with is having my luggage surpass the weight limit. I’ve also lost more luggage scales than I can count which is why the integrated scale is possibly the most necessary feature any luggage could ever have.

The built-in charge made all the train-rides and walks a lot easier knowing I didn’t have to worry about running out of batter on my phone or having to carry around an extra charger.

The minimalist look is what won me over. Usually you must give something up to get most of the features you want. If you’re looking for a lightweight bag, the aesthetics aren’t always the prettiest.

My mom’s Delsey bag cracked halfway through the trip from all the flights. Raden, nonetheless, has changed the game. Their luggage is made from Makrolon Polycarbonate which protects your case from any dents or cracks . Did I mention it’s insanely lightweight? Also, the wheels are sturdy as hell which made strolling around Europe and their unbearably rocky pathways a lot easier!

The bag includes a built-in TSA-approved lock and reversed zipper lining for waterproof sealing, and a minimalistic design that allows for maximum storage capacity. They come in beautiful colors and are delivered straight to your door. I got the checked bag and plan on buying the carry-on by the end of this year! The A22 Carry-On costs $295+, The A28 Check-In Bag (the one I have) costs $395+ and the set costs $595+. The investment is a little steep but most luggage goes for the same price without the technology nor the innovative material.

OMG how cool is this suitcase!! You’re so right, luggage is an amazing investment to make. There’s nothing worse than having it break while you’re walking everywhere, some of those streets are unforgiving! Haha.

I’m not sure if Away has the built in scale or GPS but RADEN does. I didn’t take a picture but the app will show how much your bag weighs and it gives you the location of your suitcase in case you misplace it or lose it!
